Pretty Funny

It was Saturday night and the preacher still hadn't been able to think of a sermon for the next morning. About 9:00 p.m. he finally said to his wife, "Dear, I think I've come up with the perfect sermon! I'm going to give a sermon about horseback riding!"

She said, "Don't be silly! You can't give a sermon about horseback riding!"

He replied, "Well, it's going to have to do because I've preached on just about every other subject I can think of."

The next morning as they were driving to church, she said, " can't believe that you're insisting on doing this! You know, if you're going to give that silly sermon on horseback riding, I'm just going to stay in the car during the service."

He said, "OK, then, suit yourself!", so, she stayed in the car.

Entering! church before the service, the preacher had a sudden inspiration and gave a hell-fire and brimstone sermon on SEX that just had the congregation in awe.

As the congregation filed out of the church, some of the members saw his wife sitting in the car and approached her window.

One of them said, "Wow! You just missed the best sermon your husband has ever given!"

Matt, Great Idea! My Debut solo CD is weeks from completion, and I would participate! Thanks for thinking outside the box! Stevee T.

steveeet...i'm from nj myself and used to play out around here quite regularly. after the new CD is done, i will most likely be playing out quite a bit. i have 1 of 12 tracks done so far...first track took about 2 days worth of work to get in presentable quality. i'm 99% sure i will be performing @ next year's jemfest as well as i usually get the call back year to year. i should have *my* band together...last year i had throw a group of people together in less than 3 weeks to peform with me. was so incredibly hectic...

slanshroom: Glad to hear all is well with you man, we are fine, thanks for asking, work is keeping me busy and I'm using the free time for family and guitar as the hours in the day are not long enough for T2J, lol!!.... Stay kuul man!!....

PhryDom: Godspeed on your move brotha!! :-) We'll see ya on the flip side and keep in touch!!....

MariMariSRV: Yes maam'!!.... I was very disappointed I could'nt make EJ's show!!
:-( It makes me feel worse that I didnt get to hook up with Jeff and meet Eric!!!!.... That is ok though.... One of these days girl!! :-) I'm so happy to hear about the EJ Sig Strat, that is too kuul, and the man deserved one a long time ago, but it's great to see him getting the exposure....

michelle: Damn girl, I hope whoever your talking about is on the road to recovery.... It's not family, right?!?!.... Hope all is well, and send our thoughts!! :-) BTW, tell your sis I hope her toes feel better!! :-0 ;-)

Rock-On Matt, I responded to you on email.... Your becoming quite the pro these days bro!! :-)

Later peeps, I'll post again when I can.... Gotta get ready for Matt's idea, lol, more time on the guitar is needed.... So.... It may take a few years, haha!!.... l8taz.... :-)

All of you out there in the USA

I voted already today.

You need to get out there and VOTE for the candidates of your choice.

In some parts of the country, vote early and often, and make sure your dead relatives vote as well (Chicago area only).

RECAP

Matt, Jemfest....hmmmm? When it comes around let me know...maybe we can hookup, and do some damage? I'm using an Ibanez JS series through a JCM 800 Lead series & a JCM 1960A Marshall cab. I'll be releasing my new CD independently...for absolute control of material & production....my website is almost up and running www.stevetrott.com, and I intend on selling my music through Taxi.com for movie soundtracks & commercials.

Yeah... I like it Matt, great idea! A forum just T2J's would be great and a place to share info... sounds like something cool!

I would like to help too! I've got an idea for us to put together a show. I posed this idea to Joe but maybe we could plan a contest our selves?

That sounds like a nightmare actually... or a hallucination...

stevee_t...i hear ya on that sounding like joe thing...i've been told many time to shed the influence, and i try to to some extent. the important thing though is that you stay true to yourself. i honestly write what comes naturally to me, i don't fuss about who/what i sound like...a good song is a good song no matter how you slice it...to me, if people take more than one listen to a song i've written, it's an accomplishment in it'self.

as far as my recording haha i used my guitar into my marshall mg15dfx little practice amp (yea! even the amp distortion) miced with a shure sm57...can't get ANY easier than that :)

and we were dancin'

and singin'

and movin' to the groovin'

and just when

it hit me

Matt King: That sounds like a good idea. Nice music too.

Madame Zenfish: Youre such an idiot! Matt King said he would build it himself. Now make me some french toast, bitch. just kidding dude...

I am off to vote................been waiting to get rid of the mad cowboy. And I will be playing the new Megadeth album in my car! it will be a fun ride.

mikesb - it appears that the cubes in my immediate area are not Malm fans... lmao....
no matter how much I try to force the issue they still don't like him.. lmao..

I never really looked at the Gulf wars as to being justifiable or not... I looked more at a potential cause.... and it still cries out "wealth" to me..

I really didn't know about the 'angle drilling'
shit.. if that's true then it's hardly surprising that Iraq took action...
funny.. if that turns out to be the root cause to all this shit... then the root cause is still wealth... lmao..

"although I get the point of our status as a political entity for a mere 200 + years"

my point is not specifically targeted at the USA... but to all countries.... some borders have stood for over a 1000 years... but didn't land get taken by force at some point...??
does that mean that the people that feel occupied have no claim to recover their nation because they've been the weaker people for more than a 1000 years??...
look at the Kurds, Aboo's in Oz, Indians in the US, Serbs, Zulu's, Masai, Mayan, and the list goes on and on..

Jelly Man - LOL No worries man. I know what it's like to be busy; in fact, I've almost forgotten what it's like to not be busy...

962 - bro... you've met me... we done beer.... lol..
at what point does sophistication decide to be assciated with Clarky....

shit.. I thought I saw sophistication once a long time ago...
but I couldn't be sure.. she was too far away...
running like fuck... lmao..

I can play a lot of his stuff..... some of it lends itself to 'non-alternate' picking.... but most of it don't...
the licks he does with 'pedal' notes are definately alternate picking in my opinion....

If were to make a judgement call based on what I know of his music....

I'm pretty sure that he is mostly an alternate picker..

the delivery is where the spirit and passion take control...
the complete delivery goes further than just the shred..
the shred is just a moment within a greater thing that is driven by the spirit of creativity..

now I need to talk to my personal brain care specialist again...

If you're reading this and you haven't voted, well, go vote! ;-)

(unless you're under 18 or in prison or in another country or etc.)

Voter #514. Mission accomplished :)

Mikey, it's a co-worker with the health problem, and it's my neice with the sore foot. Talked to her this morning. They gave her some pain meds that made her super hyper. They still don't know if anything is broken in her foot. Her foot might be out of commission, but her mouth still works. lol!

mikesb, ding! ding! ding! Almost makes ya wanna do the bump, doesn't it? lmao!
